Yes, and most teams will. They solve different problems.

Dashboards are still the right tool for KPI monitoring, health checks, and structured reporting — the kind of recurring questions where you want a consistent view that updates automatically. Agentic analytics is better for ad hoc questions, deep dives, and the exploratory analysis that previously required filing a ticket with the data team.

The question that actually matters isn't "which one should I use?" It's whether your data foundation is ready for either of them to work properly. Both dashboards and agents produce bad outputs when pointed at messy, undocumented data. The tooling has changed. The underlying requirement hasn't.
